Enrich Credible Failure Modes & Submissions
Traceable AI for Mine Site Monitoring
We turn siloed surveillance and documentary data into auditable mine operations and closure decisions
Trusted by leading mining operators for continuous monitoring of tailings storage, dam, and slopes.

Purpose-Built for Mining Use Cases
.png)
Catch anomalies across the footprint, early enough to act on them. Helps avoid stoppages and false alarms.

Turn the closure and assurance filing from months of consultant hours into regular, defensible submissions.

Monitor for credible failure modes and flag risks before they surface, with complete transparency of where to focus mitigation efforts.

Pin contamination source and flow paths, among other features, across decades of data, so long-term liability stays defensible.
The Move from Reactive to Proactive Mine Monitoring Keeps Stalling.
Mines generate huge monitoring datasets across teams and vendors, but too often it isn’t acted on, just siloed until the next reporting cycle.

Meeting standards means synthesizing 100+ data sources manually. Delays cost money, and a single error can put an operating license or an engineer's sign-off at risk.

Evidence sits across internal teams and external consultants, and every round of review adds weeks.
Critical-mineral demand quadruples by 2040 (IEA). But specialists age out and mining-engineering graduates fell by 1/3rd in four years. (NRCan)
From Diverse Sources
to Location-Anchored Intel
TRAIL ingests all the data a site produces and structures it into an entity-based knowledge graph, anchored by location, that grows with every data integration and over time.

Our GNSS-calibrated InSAR is a proprietary strength that anchors the ground-truth layer. It is one of many layers the workspace reasons over.
Playbooks
Codified Workflows that Run the Same Analysis the Same Way, Every Time
Our expert team develops and tunes playbooks to your site and your team’s requirements, so recurring work stops being manual.

Piezometric Water Level Assessment
.png)
Piezometer trends vs. design-basis phreatic surfaces to flag pore-pressure risk to dam stability.
Groundwater Quality Assessment
Contaminant trends vs. guidelines; surfaces seepage breakthrough at toe and foundation.
Surface Water Quality Assessment
Station results vs. regulatory limits and up/downstream gradients; identifies loading and exceedances.
Tailings Facility Water Balance
Pond levels, freeboard, inflows, discharge, climate vs. design and freeboard requirements.
Dam Surface Deformation
Fuses InSAR/GNSS and survey monuments to localize movement and trace drivers.
Dam Safety Review Support
Assembles and cross-checks the evidence record behind the periodic DSR for the EoR.
Geochemical & ARD/ML Assessment
Acid-rock-drainage and metal-leaching indicators vs. cover-integrity and closure assumptions.
Annual Regulatory Submission Compiler
Source-linked draft data package behind a recurring filing.
Inspection & Site-Change Review
Synthesizes inspections, photos, and change-detection imagery since the last cycle.
Climate & Hydrology Trend Assessment
Precipitation, snowmelt, temperature vs. multi-decadal baselines for flood routing and water balance.
Mine-Native Risk Planning
Understand your site’s behaviour over time, what are signals it wants you to look at, and how do you step in to resolve or plan mitigation.
Each layer measured at the resolution the feature warrants, updated as new data arrives, and traced to a source and a date.
Every asset feature has modelled ways it can fail: a dam by overtopping, internal erosion, or slope instability; a berm by surface erosion or settlement; a road by washout. These decide which signals matter.

Rules turn a change rate into a rating and a threshold crossed into a change in risk. It is the human-validated ledger that shows risks the team should manage.
Support Across the Mine Life Cycle
TRAIL keeps watch across active facilities via different monitoring data.
TRAIL compiles submission packages against GISTM, ICMM, CDA, MAC TSM, MSHA, ANCOLD, and other national codes.
TRAIL preserves the evidence base and runs low-touch monitoring, so long-term custodians inherit accessible context.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is TRAIL's role in mine closure compliance?
TRAIL maps a site's obligations to the evidence that satisfies them, compiles source-linked submission packages, and flags gaps before a filing goes out. Interpretation and sign-off stay with the qualified person.
Which standards and frameworks does TRAIL support?
It helps teams organize evidence against globally recognized standards such as GISTM, ICMM, and IFC Performance Standards, alongside national dam-safety codes.
How does TRAIL use InSAR for tailings and dam monitoring?
Our GNSS-calibrated InSAR anchors the ground-truth layer. TRAIL fuses it with piezometers, inspections, and design basis to trace movement to a credible failure mode, rather than reporting deformation in isolation.
Does TRAIL replace our Engineer of Record?
No. TRAIL assembles and cites the evidence and supports review. Engineering judgment, design, certification, and regulatory sign-off stay with the EoR.
Does TRAIL cover the whole mine life cycle?
Yes. It supports operations and monitoring, closure and rehabilitation, and post-closure stewardship from one traceable evidence base.
